Studio 6 Richmond Airport
Parking was very easy. Staff was friendly and helpful. Wawa, Sheetz and gas station are right across the street. Air conditioner worked very well. Bed was comfortable, and it was helpful to have a good refrigerator right in the room.

Graduate by Hilton Richmond
Nothing we couldn’t handle but there was one time that the lady cleans the room do not knocked the door just opened it. And my husband and I were just getting out the shower. Plus on 5/8/26 our second day there they changed the bed take out the trash but didn’t clean the bathroom. Not even changed ...
